[PATCH iproute2/master] bpf: initialize the verifier log

[Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@netronome.com>]

If program loading fails before verifier prints its first
message, the verifier log will not be initialized.  Always
set the first character of the log buffer to zero to make
sure we don't dump non-printable characters to the terminal.
